Importing a motorbike from Germany

[AndorranPhil]

I'm thinking of buying s bike in Germany and importing it to the UK.

Bike in question is a BMW K1, first registered in Germany in June 1992, so 28 years old.

I've had a look at the DVLA website and it seems

[a] that there's no VAT to pay because VAT will have been paid in an EU country - Germany - and the vehicle has been in use for more than 6 months, and it has covered more than 6,000 km - in fact 47,000 km

and

[b] it doesn't need type approval because it's more than 10 years old.

Has anyone gone through this process? And, if so, what advice could you give me.

TIA.
